The species which does not undergo disproportionation reaction is
[JEE Main 2025, 22 Jan (Shift 2)]
\({{\mathrm{ClO}}_{4}}^{-}\)
\({{\mathrm{ClO}}_{4}}^{-}\) does not undergo disproportionation reaction because chlorine is present in it's highest oxidation state i.e. +7.
Chlorine undergoes disproportionation in alkaline medium as shown below
\(\mathrm{a}{\mathrm{Cl}}_{2}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{b}{\mathrm{OH}}^{-}(\mathrm{aq})\to \mathrm{c}{\mathrm{ClO}}_{3}^{−}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{d}{\mathrm{Cl}}^{-}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{e}{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l})\)
The values of \(a, b, c\) and \(d\) in a balanced redox reaction are respectively

Thiosulphate reacts differently with iodine and bromine in the reaction given below:
\(2{\text{S}}_{2}{{\text{O}}_{3}}^{2−}+{\text{I}}_{2}\to {\text{S}}_{4}{{\text{O}}_{6}}^{2−}+2{\text{I}}^{−}\)
\({\text{S}}_{2}{{\text{O}}_{3}}^{2−}+5{\mathrm{Br}}_{2}+5{\text{H}}_{2}\text{O}\to 2{\mathrm{SO}}_{4}^{2−}+4{\mathrm{Br}}^{−}+10{\text{H}}^{+}\)
Which of the following statement justifies the above dual behaviour of thiosulphate?
Options are free to see. Unlock the correct answer and full explanation with Pass.
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: In the oxalic acid vs \(KMn{O}_{4}\) (in the presence of dil \({H}_{2}S{O}_{4}\) ) titration the solution needs to be heated initially to \(60^\circ C\), but no heating is required in Ferrous ammonium sulphate (FAS) vs \(KMn{O}_{4}\) titration (in the presence of dil \({H}_{2}S{O}_{4}\) )
Statement II: In oxalic acid vs \(KMn{O}_{4}\) titration, the initial formation of \(MnS{O}_{4}\) takes place at high temperature, which then acts as catalyst for further reaction. In the case of FAS vs \(KMn{O}_{4}\), heating oxidizes \(F{e}^{2+}\) into \(F{e}^{3+}\) by oxygen of air and error may be introduced in the experiment.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
